Touré: 'If You Just Have a Bunch of White People, You’re Gonna Come Up With Alternate Realities That Don’t Make Any Sense'

MSNBC's Touré made another in a series of racist remarks Friday.

Appearing on the Martin Bashir show, Touré said of Republicans, "If you just have a bunch of white people, you’re gonna come up with alternate realities that don’t make any sense" (video follows with transcript and commentary):


TOURE: They live in an alternate reality which is why we get these sort of conspiracy theories. They don’t want to blame their ideology which is hostile to blacks, gays, women, Hispanics. They already have a shrinking tent. It’s an all-white Party. If you just have a bunch of white people, you’re gonna come up with alternate realities that don’t make any sense.

Now imagine for a moment a white commentator saying, "If you just have a bunch of black people, you’re gonna come up with alternate realities that don’t make any sense."

Think such a person working in the media would have a job the next day?

No, I don't either.

But for some reason, this man is not only allowed to say things like this, he was recently promoted to co-host a new program on MSNBC.

Says a lot about this farce of a network, doesn't it?

For the record, here are some other absurd things recently said by this man:

MSNBC's Toure Argues Put 2008 Aside; Only Re-electing Obama in 2012 Will Prove America Isn't Racist

Toure Slams GOP Racist Code Words: 'Do Democrats Use Racial Code? No'

MSNBC's Touré Neblett Reacts to Ryan's Speech: For Women and Minorities, 'Our Rights Do Not Come From God or Nature'

MSNBC's Touré Neblett: Romney Using 'Niggerization' Against Obama

Be advised: that's just in the past two months.
